Lovely set PB.

Great photos and a great deal of activity over one measly fish.
The one wader looked like a Sandpiper but I don't know which species.

Thanks Jack... I still don't know which either, despite Google Lens, Merlin and my bird books and several different images of each of them... I think narrowed down to Common or Green, either way firsts for me

I hate not being able to get an ID... always when you know it's going to be something good Another great set of photo's PB.

I've chucked it through Obs and its offered Common Sandpiper if that helps the odds

That would have been my bet if pushed. The only one I've observed in the wild had a distinctive dipping motion not unlike Wagtails but less animated.

Thanks all, common it is then

I believe the common sand has the wee" shoulder groove" if that makes sense? It's just what I got telt once upon a time...another super set PB
